1 - Reflection on Previous I Search Experiences (due Thur, Mar 15)
1. What are some of the previous research projects you have done?
I did a project on lukemia, a project on an essay, a few poetry projects. like 4 on crazy horse. a really boring project on louisiana and a board game, and one on utopia.
2. Based on these projects, what does research mean to you?
Its pretty obvious, just look at the actual word and break it down. Look up information and use it to do something.
3. Describe one of your research successes or failures. Why was the experience positive or negative?
I had a project on Matthew Brady and I worked for weeks and did my best and spent two days cutting on my free time making an awsome poster and got a terrible grade. That project sucked, it was negative. Teacher Response March 15
Your atttitude toward research has me a bit concerned. I guess that is because I don't view you as negative. Therefore I must guess that you just have not developed good research skills? No, that can't be it either? I am stumped. I hope this project goes better for you. Your grade is 9/10. I had to add the gray line for you.
